OTHER ITEMS
This Cosabella bralette is incredible.It is comfortable and wonderful. Waiting for a major sale.
WHAT I MADE (DIY)
Got bored. Starting making necklaces. 🙂 I break apart my old necklaces and make new ones.
C/O (CARE OF) GIFTED ITEMS
I reviewed Grana items here, and absolutely plan on repurchasing the silk tops and the cashmere pants again.
BEAUTY
REPURCHASED STAPLES
- John Masters Organics shampoos (in..Bare & neutral, Zinc/sage which smells like vanilla, Lavender/rosemary which smells like lavender mostly, Primrose which smells like a creamy vanilla sweet rose.)
- Paula’s Choice items (read all about my regimen & favourite items)
- Maybelline Baby Lips lip balm — it’s fantastic with SPF 20.
NEWFOUND LOVES
- John Masters Organics avocado conditioner – Just a little goes a long way on the ends
- Paula’s Choice items (Antioxidant serum / BHA 9)
NO THANKS, I’ll PASS
- Paula’s Choice RESIST anti-aging serum — didn’t do anything to my spots.
- Atelier Cologne Sets — ended up being too fruity, sweet & cloying in the end. I much prefer Replica’s Beachwalk, Clean Warm Cotton and Replica’s Fireplace.

Rag & Bone–an unfortunate typo above.

Haha rage and bone. I kind of like it

I just ordered the Rage & Boots moto boots, new, full-price. I have serious foot issues, and desperately need a pair of flat, wide boots, with minimal tapering at the toes. For anyone considering these, they look so much better in real life than online, and the leather is superb. Great find!

Thank you!!!!! They really are amazing boots and worth every penny.
Sylvie
Update: Guess which blogger nabbed them on eBay for $169? Like new. The older model is all-black, comparéd to the newer model’s greyish black/black colouring, but still beautiful.

OOOO!!! LUCKY
